What is a CSF?

RheinBrücke has partnered with EPICOR to bring Country Specific Functionality (CSF) to Indian enterprises. Globally, the core EPICOR ERP functionality is sufficient to enable clients to implement solutions that can be used to comply with local requirements. However, in some locations, additional ‘Country Specific Functionality’ packs may be required either to address critical local needs or support local best practices.

CSF Packs can include bank interfaces, specific local functionality, tax capabilities, local reporting templates and other functional extensions. They can rapidly accelerate the deployment of EPICOR ERP and considerably reduce deployment costs in comparison with manual processes or development, as part of the implementation.

The India CSF was developed under the auspices of the EPICOR PDP (Partner Development Program) and includes localized report formats and files that modify AP and AR invoice processing. The CSF provides support for excise duty transaction processing and statutory reports required for compliance with Indian excise duty and sales tax compliance.
